• A cautionary tale on genome-sequencing diagnostics for rare diseases

  Children born with rare, inherited conditions known as Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation, or CDG, have mutations in one of the many enzymes the body uses to decorate its proteins and cells with sugars. Properly diagnosing a child with CDG and pinpointing the exact sugar gene that's mutated can b more

• 46 gene sequencing test for cancer patients on the NHS

  The first multi-gene DNA sequencing test that can help predict cancer patients' responses to treatment has been launched in the National Health Service (NHS), thanks to a partnership between scientists at the University of Oxford and Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust. The test uses the latest DN more

• Top 10 ways biotechnology could improve our everyday life

  The Global Agenda Council on Biotechnology, one of the global networks under the World Economic Forum (WEF) announced that the council has indentified "ten most important biotechnologies" which could help meet rapidly growing demand for energy, food, nutrition, and health. These new technologies, th more

• Cannabis genome sequenced with 454 GS FLX+ System
  

  Medicinal Genomics sequenced the entire genomes of Cannabis sativa and Cannabis indica, two strains of the therapeutic plant. These largest known Cannabis genome assemblies comprise over 131 billion bases of sequence and will advance research on the therapeutic benefits of Cannabis for a wide range of health conditions, including cancer and inflammatory diseases more

• Genome Sequencer 20 System: Breakthrough in a New Applications Age of Sequencing
  

  The Genome Sequencer 20 System is an ultra-high-throughput automated DNA sequencing system capable of carrying out and monitoring sequencing reactions in a massively parallel fashion. Since the Genome Sequencer 20 System provides a complete solution for ultra-high-throughput DNA sequencing, an individual researcher can for the first time prepare samples and sequencing reactions, generate sequence reads, and assemble genome sequence data within days. more

• Ultrafast De Novo Sequencing of Corynebacterium urealyticum Using the Genome Sequencer 20 System
  

  A microbial genome sequence provides a wealth of data and specific information that cannot be obtained by other experimental approaches. A genome sequence can be regarded as the starting point for detailed bioinformatics analysis, metabolic reconstruction and systematic functional examination of all identified genes. In particular, genome sequencing has revealed important information on genes and deduced proteins of human pathogens, including putative virulence factors and potential new drug targets. more

• Assembling the 20 Gb white spruce (Picea glauca) genome from whole-genome shotgun sequencing data

  White spruce (Picea glauca) is a dominant conifer of the boreal forests of North America, and providing genomics resources for this commercially valuable tree will help improve forest management and conservation efforts. Sequencing and assembling the large and highly repetitive spruce genome though more

• Shimmer: detection of genetic alterations in tumors using next-generation sequence data

  Motivation: Extensive DNA sequencing of tumor and matched normal samples using exome and whole-genome sequencing technologies has enabled the discovery of recurrent genetic alterations in cancer cells, but variability in stromal contamination and subclonal heterogeneity still present a severe chall more

• How could disclosing incidental information from whole-genome sequencing affect patient behavior?

  In this article, we argue that disclosure of incidental findings from whole-genome sequencing has the potential to motivate individuals to change health behaviors through psychological mechanisms that differ from typical risk assessment interventions. Their ability to do so, however, is likely to be more
